I Have A Special Cultivation Talent Novel - Chapter 62
Chapter 62: Change in Divine Stone
It wasn’t just the four disciples; others were also looking at him in disbelief.
Especially Sun Changrong.
He realized that as soon as Chen Jingzhai appeared.
But he did not expect Chen Jingzhai to kill the Black Ice Dolphin so quickly.
The kind of ability that was revealed in this instantaneous kill surprised him to no end.
Among all the branches, the disciples of Daoxuan Peak knew Chen Jingzhai the best.
With the Yin Yang Formation as his basis, this Little Master-Uncle chose to hide out in Tianyahai Pavilion daily.
He was not studying formation methods there but concentrated on the path of pill alchemy instead.
This was also the reason that most annoyed the inner disciples of Daoxuan Peak and why all the inner disciples wanted to teach the Little Master-Uncle a lesson.
In truth, because of Mrs. Yang, there was no need for everyone to be in such an impasse.
…
Furthermore, Chen Jingzhai had gone from the Meditation Plane to the Foundation Establishment Plane in merely one hundred days.
This kind of talent should have been enough to convince everyone.
To Daoxuan Peak, it should have been considered a blessing.
However, Chen Jingzhai did not devote himself to the study of formation. Instead, he focused on studying alchemy as if he were a disciple of Elixir Peak.
Even if he had produced some elixirs and pills that were impressive to those casual disciples, the inner disciples were still unconvinced.
They had always felt that this Little Master-Uncle was not part of the whole with everyone else.
Their participation this time in exploring the secret zone was an attempt to guide the Little Master-Uncle to return to his rightful path.
But many disciples, including Sun Changrong himself, did not encounter Chen Jingzhai inside the secret zone until now.
Of course, none of them had any idea that three disciples had already been sent out by Chen Jingzhai.
They thought that perhaps Chen Jingzhai was hiding somewhere, just hanging out!
Chen Jingzhai’s move at that moment brought surprises to all the disciples, including Sun Changrong.
“Awesome!”
“Little Master-Uncle did a great job!”
When Chu Jingsong sensed Chen Jingzhai’s action, he burst into hearty laughter.
The power of a whale gathered and was unleashed with his fists, akin to a great blast.
Half of the head of the iron-armored rhinoceros was sheared off by the blast, dispersing in a flurry of flesh and blood.
Chen Jingzhai gave Chu Jingsong a small smile while clasping his fists in salute in mid-air. Then, he disappeared using the earth escape spell.
The next moment, he appeared beside the Swamp Black Crocodile.
A sharp golden sword directly pierced the gap between the scales of the Swamp Black Crocodile.
Blood flowed out of the gap.
It was a metal spell, the Jinyuan Sword.
Although it was only a Grade 1 spell, its advantages were its speed and the concentration of power.
Chen Jingzhai integrated the sword vapor into the spell, thus increasing its striking prowess.
The Swamp Black Crocodile was in pain as it slung its tail to sweep at him.
But Chen Jingzhai fled as soon as he hit it and approached the corpse of the Grade 2 demonic beast.
After grabbing the corpse of the demonic beast and stuffing it inside his storage bag, he disappeared yet again.
The disciples of Elixir Peak and Daoxuan Peak all witnessed what the Little Master-Uncle had done.
After looking at each other for a while, they seemed to come to the same realization.
Immediately, the four began collecting the corpses of the demonic beasts.
They were not able to grab hold of any lotus seed, but they were not going to miss out on the corpses of these demonic beasts.
There were dozens of Grade 2 demonic beasts here, and they were worth a lot.
Each one could be deconstructed to create many alchemical materials. None of the muscles, bones, flesh, or skin would be wasted.
Even the least of them was worth 10,000 spiritual stones.
With these, their trip would not be in vain.
Jiang Youning was dismissive of the corpses of these Grade 2 demonic beasts.
But he, too, was copying Chen Jingzhai and began taking action against the Swamp Black Crocodile.
The water-colored sword vapor slid close to the ground and slammed into the abdomen of the Swamp Black Crocodile.
He was clever and did not get too close.
Instead, he continued his attack at a distance with the long sword in his hand, a spiritual item.
But his sword vapor was not as precise as Chen Jingzhai’s ability to hit the gaps between the scales.
Most of them were blocked by the Swamp Black Crocodile’s scales.
Even though the damage inflicted was insignificant, it was enough to make the Swamp Black Crocodile suffer.
A pair of Sky Black Cranes were in the air, and Jiang Youning’s sword vapor permeated the ground below.
Occasionally, Chen Jingzhai would find the right time and deal a strike at the Swamp Black Crocodile.
It did not take long before the Swamp Black Crocodile found itself caught in a difficult position.
However, this realization only fuelled its ferocity further. The more it fought, the more fierce it became.
Even though its scales were falling off and blood poured out of him, it was not giving up on its chase after the lotus seed.
The lotus seed, like a ball, was being chased by the Swamp Black Crocodile and the Sky Black Cranes in the air.
No matter which side it was near, it was being chased, unable to land for a long while.
During this time, the two disciples from Daoxuan Peak had each picked up some corpses of the demonic beasts.
The two of them were consciously making their way to get close to Sun Changrong.
Sun Changrong was facing several demonic beasts by himself and was under considerable pressure.
After the two fellow disciples got near him, Sun Changrong gave them two flags.
The three disciples from Daoxuan Peak, flags in hand, arranged the Axe Slaying Formation with mutual understanding.
This was purely a Grade 2 slaying formation, and its power multiplied as it was manned by the three disciples of Daoxuan Peak.
The moment the formation was set up, a Grade 2 demonic beast was immediately killed.
The rest of the demonic beasts were also constrained by the power of the formation and could not advance.
The disciples from Dream Celestial Peak and Divine Cloud Peak, likewise, no longer remained hidden.
After the two pocketed the lotus seeds, they began to hunt down Grade 2 demonic beasts.
After a while, a one-sided situation became apparent in the river valley.
Using the earth escape spell, Chen Jingzhai was able to wander around freely in the river valley.
Seeing that the disciples of Elixir Peak had also joined in on the corpse picking endeavor, he did not bother to continue.
Instead, he went next to Chu Jingsong’s side and used the skills of the Yin Yang Formation to help him deal with the Grade 2 demonic beasts.
His mastery of the earth escape spell was incredibly elusive and pure, allowing him to move around undetected.
In the blink of an eye, he had finished off three Grade 2 demonic beasts, which opened Chu Jingsong’s eyes.
Not just Chu Jingsong but the rest of the disciples were astonished by the strength displayed by Chen Jingzhai.
Chen Jingzhai’s efficiency in hunting down these demonic beasts by himself was much better than all of them together.
Even Jiang Youning could not stop the tick of his eyelids.
However, Chen Jingzhai did not feel much of anything.
Half of his mind was on the battle, but the other half of his mind was paying attention to his brow chakra.
There were some changes taking place inside the divine stone, which caught him off guard.
Ever since it collected the pool and the magic lotus, the aura of the divine stone, though diminished, did not disappear completely.
Between flickering lights, a pattern began to appear.
Chen Jingzhai had never seen this pattern before, and yet he found the pattern familiar.
It resembled the spiritual pattern on the Seven Stars Moon Pool.
This was not all. After Chen Jingzhai accidentally touched it with his divine mind, half of his mind was pulled into a spacious area.
A space inside the divine stone!
After Chen Jingzhai figured out what was going on, he was extremely perplexed.
There was actually a humongous space inside the divine stone, and the Seven Stars Moon Pool was at the center of this space.
It was vastly different from the narrow and incomplete state it was in when it was at the river bottom. The pool, at that moment, was five feet long and wide.
It was a pool in the shape of a square.
In the pool, there was shallow water, which contained abundant essence power.
The magic lotus no longer looked withered or limp.
On the contrary, the white lotus bloomed brilliantly, with three lotus seeds inside the lotus pod.
Every one of those seeds was shining. The light flashed and echoed with the spirit light of the divine stone.
Chen Jingzhai explored using his divine mind and discovered that the space inside the divine stone was at least 10,000 square feet in size.
And when the patterns on the divine stone flickered, essence power appeared in the space out of nowhere.
Furthermore, it was being pulled by the pool, slowly flowing into the pool and condensing into a liquid.
The feeling was too amazing to describe.
The divine stone was in his head, and there was a space inside the divine stone.
Chen Jingzhai also discovered that not only could his divine mind come and go freely, but he was also able to collect the corpses of the demonic beasts.
Therefore, he was able to dispatch the corpse of the Black Ice Dolphin into the space inside the divine stone without hindrance or problems.
Not only that, Chen Jingzhai further discovered that the Seven Stars Moon Pool was still absorbing the blood of the Black Ice Dolphin.
The blood of the demonic beast automatically flowed toward the pool as it slowly penetrated it.
But there was no change to the water in the pool, and Chen Jingzhai could not fathom its mystery.
But as long as it was profitable, he would naturally seize the opportunity.
This was why he suddenly began collecting the corpses of Grade 2 demonic beasts.
